Fusarium solani f. sp. passiflorae: A new forma specialis causing collar rot in yellow passion fruit
Resumo:
The aim of this study was to characterize a Fusarium population obtained from yellow passion fruit (YPF) with collar rot using pathogenicity, morphocultural characteristics and molecular tests. Pathogenicity and disease severity were assessed in six plant species: YPF, zucchini, tomato, bean, soya bean and cucumber. Potato dextrose agar medium (PDA) was used to determine mycelial growth at five temperatures (15-35°C). The colour produced by isolates was also determined on PDA at 25°C. Synthetic nutrient agar medium was used to evaluate: (i) type of mycelium and phialides; (ii) size, shape and number of septa from conidia; and (iii) production of chlamydospores and perithecia. Molecular tests consisted of sequencing the ITS-5·8S rDNA region and elongation factor 1α (EF-1α) gene. The isolates caused large lesions on YPF, zucchini and tomato, with YPF having the highest mean disease severity and being the only one that showed wilt symptoms and death of the plant. Thus the isolates showed host specificity. Maximum mycelial growth occurred at 25°C and the predominant colour was bluish-white. The isolates produced long phialides, dense aerial mycelium, oval microconidia with a mean size of 9·5 × 2·6 μm, macroconidia of 32·7 × 3·4 μm with 3·3 septa, and chlamydospores; only one isolate lacked perithecia. Phylogenetic trees of the ITS region and EF-1α gene showed that isolates from YPF formed a distinct group within the F. solani group and the formae speciales of F. solani. It is proposed to name all isolates from YPF as F. solani f. sp. passiflorae. © 2013 British Society for Plant Pathology.

Microbial enzymes have been used for various biotechnological applications; however, enzyme stabilization remains a challenge for industries and needs to be considered. This study describes the effects of spray-drying conditions on the activity and stability of β-fructofuranosidase from Fusarium graminearum. The extracellular enzyme β-fructofuranosidase was spray dried in the presence of stabilizers, including starch (Capsul) (SC), microcrystalline cellulose (MC), trehalose (TR), lactose (LC) and β-cyclodextrin (CD). In the presence of TR (2% w/v), the enzymatic activity was fully retained. After 1 year of storage, 74% of the enzymatic activity was maintained with the CD stabilizer (10% w/v). The residual activity was maintained as high as 80% for 1 h at 70°C when MC, SC and CD (5% w/v) stabilizers were used. Spray drying with carbohydrates was effective in stabilizing the F. graminearum β-fructofuranosidase, improved enzymatic properties compared to the soluble enzyme and demonstrated a potential use in future biotechnology applications. © 2013 Informa UK Ltd.

A cultura de pimenta do reino (Piper nigrum L.) é uma das principais atividades agrícolas no estado do Pará e sofre sérios danos ocasionados pela fusariose, doença restrita ao Brasil. O presente trabalho avaliou a atividade antifúngica in vitro de óleos essenciais de espécies de Piper ricos em fenilpropanóides frente a Fusarium solani f. sp. piperis, agente causal da fusariose. A inibição do crescimento micelial pelo método de difusão em Agar na concentração de 5 mg.Ml-1 foi considerada: baixa para P. aduncum (20,3%) e P. krukoffii (31,4%); moderada para P. callosum (55,7%) e P. marginatum (70,3%) e alta para P. divaricatum (93,3%). Os componentes majoritários identificados por CG-EM foram: dilapiol (92,0%), safrol (78,0%), metileugenol (75,2%) e eugenol (7,9%), apiol (80,0%), Z-isoosmorizol (44,0%) e E-anetol (22,0%), respectivamente. O óleo de P. divaricatum e seus compostos majoritários apresentaram valores CIM de 0,75 mg.mL-1. A avaliação dos efeitos combinados do eugenol e metileugenol apontou o eugenol como principal responsável pela atividade.
